That's it?
I don't know. Doesn't sound like a very big obstacle to me. But I don't think AI will replace radiologists even if there was a law that said like, "blah blah blah, automated reports, can't be sued, blah blah." I personally think the consulting work they do is really valuable and very difficult to automate, we would be in an AGI world where radiologists get replaced, which seems unlikely.
The bigger picture is that we are pretty much obligated to treat people medically, which is a good thing, so there is a lot more interest in automating healthcare than say, law, where spending isn't really compulsory.

This could well become another mask mandate, which while being reasonable in itself, rubs people wrong way just enough to become a sacred issue.
- marcosdumay 1y agoVery few things the general public wants stays just one law amendment away for long. And almost all of those things are for the benefit of powerful people.
- T-800Rad 1y agoI think you're right, and the source of the change of legislation may well be related to Medicare and Medicaid cost cutting. After all, it's difficult to see the federal government.
